Happy Hanukkah


I love this time of year.
I love shopping for my family & friends.
...and wrapping lots of presents.

I'm done shopping & all the presents are wrapped.

 I had fun this year and made bows instead of buying them.

I used fabric ribbon & wired ribbon

Tonight is the first night of Hanukkah & I'm excited to start exchanging presents.

If you want to check out a really cool light display...
my brother decked out his house & entered a contest on patch.

Happy Holidays to you & your family!

    And that's one of the things I miss about Southern California - everyone does lights. Your brother's Festival of Ligthts was cool. Happy Hanukkah!
